THE JUSTICE PRIZE

The Justice Prize is presented to individuals or organizations for contributions that have furthered the cause of justice as delivered through the legal system.

The intention of the award is not only to acknowledge individual efforts but also to encourage further advancements in the field and progress toward bringing about a fundamentally just world.

The Justice Prize of the Peter and Patricia Gruber Foundation, a gold medal and a $500,000 cash prize, is an international award given without respect to nationality, race, gender, ethnicity, or religious creed. Recipients are selected from the world community by a distinguished panel of international legal experts. An annual award, the prize was established in 2001.

"Justice redresses the arbitrary use of power by an individual or by a group."

Peter Gruber, Chairman
The Peter and Patricia Gruber Foundation
